Is it possible to find strings in any integer size?
I am considering stringing my 6-string electric guitar with a series of prime gauges.
e.g. 11,13,17,29,37,47
I am looking on Ernie Ball's site and while I might be able to find the 3 thinner strings, the larger ones almost always fall into the same sizes (which are all composite numbers, not primes).
Has anyone ever seen gauges like this for larger strings? (29,37,47)

Yes, you can find string gauges in the odd sizes, depending on the manufacturer. I've filled odd sets by pulling from a couple different makers. You can check with Dunlop and D'Addario.
As mentioned in the comments, there sometime is very little difference in a single gauge change. I have measured strings with digital calipers and found that there can be some on variance on what .048 means to each manufacturer, some a little bigger, some a little smaller.
